hey O-town, 2012 is here
now tell me, have you heard about my rap career?
I'm here, I'm here, I'm queer King Lear
be a dear and listen while I kick it, high gear
March Hawk is on the scene
tearing it up like Prince meets Queen
marching you down the perfect song
we will rock you all night long
put your finger on the pulse
move your feet, let's do a salsa
everyone shake their somethin' somethin'
don't make me crank this up for nothin'
props, props to Paul Anka
shake it, Caroline, thank ya, thank ya
Ottawa's gettin' a special treat
Kitchissippi-stylez, beat by beat
hold me close, pull me near
haven't you heard about my rap career?
I'm clean, I’m clear, I don't drink beer
just like this naturally, wicked and weird.
hey O-town, 2012 is here
now tell me, have you heard about my rap career?
I'm here, I'm here, I'm queer as fuck
now pay attention while i really suck
March Hawk in on the scene
March Hawk ain't lean and mean
i've got a beer belly without the beer
i've got a story to tell ya, near and dear
once upon a time i was from T-dot
came to O-town when i was just a tot
been tellin' all the secrets ever since
O-town scene needs all my hints
I shake it, shake it, give ya beats
fresh and free aural treats
I got tight words that i just don't mince
so sour on your soul, you need breath mints
Small town, big town, it's all the same
black or white if you play the game
throne room, green room, figure of speech;
you're here to learn, I’m here to teach
